Operation Sindoor: How India Avenged Pahalgam Attack with a Precise Multi-Target Strike on Terror Camps

India launched Operation Sindoor to avenge the Pahalgam terror attack, striking deep into Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and targeting multiple terror camps of Jaish-e-Mohammed and Lashkar-e-Taiba. Satellite images revealed the destruction of key headquarters and training camps, including Jaish’s base in Bahawalpur, Lashkar’s logistic hub in Sialkot, and training facilities in Muzaffarabad and Kotli’s Abbas camp. The strikes were timed with military precision—beginning at 1:12 AM in Bahawalpur and continuing within minutes across other sites—completely destroying infrastructure used for planning and executing cross-border terror activities in Jammu and Kashmir. After the operation, the Indian government held emergency meetings with chief ministers and lieutenant governors of border states like Punjab, Rajasthan, and Jammu & Kashmir to discuss national security. While praise poured in for the military, Congress demanded PM Modi’s direct presence in the all-party meeting. Meanwhile, Pakistan responded with shelling in border areas such as Akhnoor and Firozpur, prompting evacuations, though some civilians vowed to stay and support the army. In anticipation of escalation, mock blackout drills were conducted in critical zones like Amritsar, Jaisalmer, and Mathura to protect vital sites such as the Golden Temple, Jaisalmer Fort, and the Mathura oil refinery. Sirens were sounded, lights were cut, and emergency protocols were enacted to safeguard civilians and infrastructure from possible counterattacks. This coordinated and swift retaliation demonstrated India’s resolve to strike back decisively against terrorism.
